As shadows surged from the skies down to the land and sea, Only a few were able to resist the calling of the darkness. The cities from far beyond started collapsing and as they fall screams and echos filled the land full of fear and chaos.

A survivor from the city of New York. Aide, an employee from a financing company were asleep in his office when the "Darkening" happened. He escaped the building with his friends and co-workers but  he was the only one left from the group that survived. As he yelled in fear and anxiousness "Why am I the only one left? , Why meeeee?"

He then soon went out on the streets and as he walked pass by the buildings, He sees bodies that was slowly being consumed in the darkness slowly realizing that he might end up just like them.

But he then remember that he survived for a reason , that he must continue to where the world takes him to go.

As time became irrelevant as there was only darkness, As the light from the sun,moon and stars did not shine through the world. It became so hard to walk as you can only see faint lights around you and not knowing what could be lurking in all of that darkness.

Aide then spotted a bank where seemingly there is still alot of lights turned on for no reason. As he stepped close he heard a gunshot , And then he saw some other survivors.

"Please , don't shoot I am a person and not one of those shadowy things." -Aide replied

He then hears a man shouting at him
yelling "How can we sure that you are not deceiving us, That you really are a human?"

After the conversation whispers echoed through the streets, Meaning that the shadows are near.

Aide immediately run towards the survivors without looking back and not worrying if he might be shot by man he just talked with.

The survivors then saw the shadows creeping in towards them. They had no other choice but to let Aide inside the bank to escape the shadows.

After then they closed the doors and turned off the lights from the bank. As they quietly hears the growls and whisperings of the shadow beings outside of the bank. They then immediately rushed towards the vault which is located underneath the bank.

The man he had a conversation earlier with introduced his name as "Alex" which is one of the survivors from New York when the darkness fall. Alex was in the military as a trainee but their camp was destroyed by bolts of darkness that came out of nowhere. He and a fellow trainee "Ann" rushed towards the emergency tunnels and ended up in the city. Soon after they gathered resources and took shelter in the bank for the meanwhile.

Alex then said "You crazy idiot aren't you afraid of being shot?", Aide then replied "I'll rather be shotted by a human than become like them".

And with Aide's words he impressed Alex and the other survivors with him. Ann, the trainee who escaped with Alex and holded the bank as their temporary fortress. And Tron a kid that Ann and Alex found hiding in the groceries store waiting for his parents to come back and pick him but they did not came back at all. Tron then sees both of his parents being devoured by the shadows , He tried to go to them but Alex and Ann stopped him.

He soon then cried each night after that and slowly just accepted to what happened to his parents. But he did not lose hope but expecting that one day he will get both of his parents back.

After their introduction with one another they then headed down to their kitchen and prepared some food to eat. As they are on rations they only took some food enough for their body to keep working. In the meanwhile Tron then slept in his bed while Aide,Alex and Ann discuss on their next move.

As Aide explained his plans along with Alex and Ann. They soon started to hear whispers above them. They then realized the shadows are near them. So they hurried quickly upstairs to the main lobby and they saw an image of darkness. They then used a flashlight towards it, but it was of no use. The creature immediately got enraged and rushed towards them. As both Aide and Anne quickly went downstairs they soon found out that Alex was left behind.

When they tried to open the door up to the main lobby it was locked. Knowing that Alex locked them inside to protect them. Soon after they heard Alex's screams. But Ann could only cry to what happened to Alex and how he wanted to help and protect other people.

Both Ann and Aide immediately went to Tron and checked if he is alright. Tron then asks "where is Alex?" Ann could only show her sadness towards Tron. Aide then tells Tron that Alex sacrificed his own life for us.
Soon after hearing the news , Tron decided to help Ann and Aide find a way out of thee bank and search for other survivors.

They then searched for tools and equipment.  And found a blueprint of the bank. They then immediately climbed through the vents and upwards towards the top of the bank. They soon found Alex's body laying on the ground slowly being absorbed into the darkness. But they decided to not waste the sacrifice that Alex made and immediately hurried up to the rooftop of the bank.

They then climbed down through a set of ladders leading down to the streets.

After which they planned on going to the Grocery Store again to pick up some food and resources that they could use in their goal of finding other survivors.
